PREFACE. 

For  vocabularies  of  the  language  spoken  by  the  aboriginal  inhab 
itants  of  New  Jersey  we  look  to

A  Grammar  of  the  Language  of  the  Lenni  Lenape  or  Delaware 
Indians.  Translated  from  the  German  Manuscript  of  the 
late  Rev.  David  Zeisberger,  for  the  American  Philosophical

The  Salem  Interpreter,  recorded  in  the  office  of  the  Secretary 
of   State,   at  Trenton,   and   printed   in   the   writer's   "The 
Indians  of  New  Jersey,"  Paterson,  N.  J.1,  1894. 
These  various  sources   furnish  perhaps  three  thousand  different 
words. 

In  the  following  pages  about  six  hundred  and  fifty  personal  names 
are  given,  not  counting  repetitions.  These  are  practically  all  additions 
to  the  vocabularies  above  mentioned,  and  so  form  a  very  material 
extension  of  our  knowledge  of  the  Lenni-Lenape  language. 

Moreover,  Indian  personal  names  were  usually  combinations  of 
nominal,  pronominal  and  adjectival  themes,  so  that  this  list  is  cal 
culated  to  throw  much  light  on  the  habits  of  thought,  the  mental 
characteristics,  the  structure  of  their  language  and  the  environments 
of  the  aborigines. 

The  student  of  the  origin  of  language  will  be  interested  to  notice 
that  certain  sounds  are  almost  never  used  in  beginning  personal 
names. 

The  frequency  of  the  letters  of  the  English  alphabet  in  beginning 
the  names  hereinafter  given  appears  by  the  following  table.  The 
third  column  shows  the  frequency  of  the  several  letters,  taken  from 
a  list  of  15,800  names  of  white  inhabitants  of  New  Jersey,  1670-1730. 
Dividing  this  number  by  26  we  have  600  such  persons,  the  same  num 
ber  as  of  the  aborigines  named.  The  comparison  is  therefore  based

s 

As  f  occurs  but  once,  and  v  only  four  times,  it  is  probable  that 
they  have  been  incorrectly  given,  and  they  may  be  properly  omitted. 
The  sound  indicated  by  w  would  be  as  well  shown  by  ou.  Thus  the 
initial  letters  would  be  reduced  to  12. 

The  preponderance  of  m  is  perhaps  due  to  the  prefix  m',  indicating 
a  general  designation,  as  opposed  to  one  in  particular;  m,  n  and  w 
suggest  pronominal  prefixes.  But  most  of  the  names  are  evidently 
descriptive. 

As  for  the  pronunciation :  names  appearing  in  deeds  prior  to  1664 
were  written  by  the  Dutch,  except  some  on  the  Delaware  river,  which 
were  written  by  Swedes.  After  1664  deeds  for  lands  north  of  New 
ark  were  usually  drawn  up  by  Dutch  scriveners,  and  many  in  Mon- 
mouth  and  Somerset  counties;  but  most  of  them  were  written  by 
Englishmen. 

It  is  evident  that  many,  if  not  most,  of  these  scriveners  had  little 
or  no  knowledge  of  the  native  language ;  also,  that  they  lacked  the 
"Indian  ear,"  as  Heckewelder  calls  it,  and  so  were  unable  to  appre 
hend  the  precise  sounds  of  the  spoken  words.  In  the  same  deed  the 
Indian  names  are  usually  spelled  differently  four  or  five  times.  Some 
of  these  variations  have  been  given,  that  the  reader  may  be  better 
able  to  judge  approximately  what  was  the  actual  or  probable  pro 
nunciation.  As  greater  care  is  usually  given  to  the  signatures  in  an 
instrument,  so  it  doubtless  was  with  these  Indian  deeds,  that  the 
scriveners  probably  were  more  particular  to  have  the  names  accu 
rately  written  at  the  end.  Hence,  in  the  following  list,  special  men 
tion  is  frequently  made  of  the  forms  of  the  names  as  "signed."  Of 
course,  the  Indians  themselves  merely  made  their  marks,  often  a 
tribal  or  gentile  symbol,  and  the  names  attached  to  these  marks  were 
written  by  the  persons  who  drafted  the  deeds. 

About  250  of  the  names  herewith  given  are  compiled  from  the 
New  Jersey  Archives,  Vol.  XXI — Calendar  of  Records  in  the  Office 
of  the  Secretary  of  State,  at  Trenton,  1665-1703.  The  figure  follow 
ing  these  names  refers  to  the  page  of  that  volume  where  they  may 
be  found.  More  than  half  of  the  list  has  been  gleaned  by  the  writer 
from  the  records  in  the  office  referred  to,  having  been  omitted  or 
overlooked  by  the  compiler  of  the  Calendar  mentioned.  Others  have 
been  gathered  from  all  available  printed  sources,  as  well  as  from 
various  original  documents. 

With  very  few  exceptions  no  attempt  has  been  made  to  interpret 
these  names.  This  list  was  compiled  with  no  such  object,  but  rather 
to  place  it  within  the  reach  of  expert  students  of  the  Algonquin  lan 
guage. 

The  origin  and  effect  of  Indian  deeds  for  lands  in  New  Jersey  are 
explained  in  my  "Indians  of  New  Jersey."  It  may  be  noted,  however, 
that  because  an  Indian  squaw  or  child  joins  in  a  deed  it  does  not 


follow  that  the  aborigines  recognized  the  woman's  right  of  dower, 
or  the  child's  right  of  inheritance  in  lands.  The  simple  fact  was 
that  the  white  purchaser  acted  on  his  own  knowledge  of  the  English 
law,  and  wished  to  be  sure  of  acquiring  the  whole  of  the  Indian  title. 
For  the  same  reason,  probably,  he  was  in  the  habit  of  getting  all 
the  Indians  of  a  neighborhood,  as  tenants  in  common,  to  join  in  the 
deed  for  an  extensive  tract  of  land,  or  at  least  to  have  them  sign  as 
witnesses,  so  that  on  sober  second  thought  they  might  not  claim  that 
they  had  had  no  knowledge  of  the  execution  of  the  deed. 

Something  like  half  of  these  names  were  published  by  the  writer 
in  the  American  Anthropologist  for  January,  1902.  The  interest 
manifested  in  that  publication  has  led  him  to  extend  the  list  to  its 
present  proportions.  It  is  believed  that  no  such  list  of  aboriginal 
personal  names,  principally  of  the  seventeenth  century,  has  ever  been 
published  before.  That  it  may  be  helpful  to  the  student  of  American 
anthropology,  and  especially  of  the  language  of  the  Lenni-Lenape,  is 
the  hope  of  the  writer.

"Einer  Muskonetcong" — probably  cindc  Muskonetcong,  at  the  end 
of;  or  perhaps  the  hinterland.  See  Quenamaka,  and  Sasakaman.  All 
three  deeds  are  of  the  same  date,  and  doubtless  were  drawn  by  the 
same  scrivener,  probably  a  Dutchman.  Perhaps  the  word  is  the  Indian 
ou/«,  suggesting  the  idea  of  place,  or  direction,  as  "the  course  of  the 
Muskonetcong,"  or  "at  the  Muskonetcong."

county,  in  behalf  of  Peter  Sonmans,  Sgr  Lord 
Proprietor,  for  lands  at  Pemrachquinming  on  the 
second  river  or  creek  west  from  Remopock  river, 
"beginning  on  a  small  Pan,  which  will  be  drie  up 
sometimes  from  said  Pan  running  northerly  along 
a  short  hill  or  mountain,  and  also  along  the  marked 
trees  to  a  great  mountain,"  etc. — E.  J.  Deeds,  Lib. 
£2,  p.  152. 

"Pan."  The  meaning  seems  to  be  a  pond.  The  neighborhood  has 
been  always  known  among  the  old  Dutch  settlers  as  De  Panne,  or  The 
Ponds.  The  etymology  is  obscure.  The  word  pan  in  Dutch  is  as  in 
English— a  frying-pan,  specifically.  The  Dutch  dictionaries  give  ecn 
Htaiul  tratcr  (standing  or  smooth  water),  pai-rde-tcct  (watering-place  for 
horses),  or  cijver  (a  fish-pond)  as  the  Dutch  equivalent  for  the  English 
"pond."  The  writer  has  conjectured  that  the  word  may  be  of  Indian 
origin,  but  the  Lenni-Lenape  word  expressing  the  meaning  of  pond 
usually  has  the  inseparable  generic  suffix  jtrck,  pnug,  pock,  as  in  nippeck, 
me  nupprek,  Romopock.  The  simplest,  though  not  wholly  satisfactory, 
explanation  seems  to  be  that  the  word  pan  is  merely  a  corruption  of 
the  English  "pond."  See  Wanamasoa.

Nachpunk  is  the  name  of  a  swamp  in  the  south- 


38 

eastern  portion  of  Wayne  township,  which  is 
drained  by  the  Nachpunk  brook  into  the  Singack 
river.  In  1898  I  was  retained  to  draft  an  act  of 
the  Legislature,  incorporating  the  Borough  of 
Tctowa,  and  the  name  of  this  brook  was  given 
to  me  as  one  of  the  points  in  the  boundary.  I  had 
no  recollection  of  ever  meeting  with  the  name, 
and  assumed  it  to  be  Dutch,  and  so  wrote  it  Naakt- 
punkt — bare  point — in  the  Act.  (Laws  1898, 
page  98.)  This  explanation  is  given  for  the  bene 
fit  of  some  future  student.  While  writing  this  note, 
I  am  informed  by  a  native  of  Wayne  township, 
seventy  years  old,  that  he  always  understood  from 
the  "old  people"  that  Nachpunk — and  thus  he  pro 
nounced  the  word,  as  in  German  or  in  Dutch — 
was  an  Indian  name.  The  swamp  in  question  is 
about  five  miles  southwest  of  the  Paterson  city  hall. 
The  mouth  of  the  Saddle  River,  in  which  the  In 
dian  Nackpunk  was  interested,  is  about  five  miles 
southeast  of  the  city  hall.  It  is  possible  that  the 
Indian  referred  to  may  have  removed  his  wigwam 
from  the  Saddle  river  to  the  swamp,  afterwards 
called  Nachpunk,  but  it  was  not  an  attractive 
place  for  the  location  of  even  a  wigwam.  See  also 
Machpunk,  Nachpong,  Nathpoencque,  and  Onage- 
punk,  which  are  probably  variants  of  the  same 
name.
